I did some pre-build planning for another Terrible Keyboard and in the process discovered that you can buy uranium ore on amazon.

maybe I should scale this one back a bit

@foone I've had this idea for a long time so now I'm giving it to you in the hopes that someone less lazy than me might actually bring it to life: a one-button keyboard that emits the character corresponding to the ASCII code of the current outside temperature. You have to get up in the cooler parts of the day to type an "A", most of the capital letters are available year-round in southern California, if you want lower case letters you'll have to go to Arizona.

This is a Good Ideaᵀᴹ.

@SvenGeier @foone this keyboard completely breaks outside the US under most non-summer climates

@elfi @foone Well, sure, the "A" in ASCII stands for "American", after all ;)
Maybe Europe needs its own character encoding where A=1, B=2, ... like most people would expect anyways...

@SvenGeier @foone I guess I'll have to import a model if I want to be a pest and type a bunch of ASCII bells
